Very interesting statement from Farnborough. Sounds like they aren't too happy.Lord Elpus wrote: Tue May 12, 2026 1:13 pmYep, Aaron Kuhl now also confirmed as signing for Farnham. Kuhl however has a dodgy knee and Anderson wasn't exactly a first choice at Aldershot. They'll sign better and probably so will we.Tony wrote: Tue May 12, 2026 8:27 am Farnham doing some early business signing ex Aldershot Keane Anderson and releasing Ogo Obi their top scorer who missed the last couple of months of the season through injury.

The club supported him financially...I suppose this depends whether he was on a contract or not. If he was, then they were surely obliged to? If he wasn't however, then it was good of then. Sounds like the supporters had some kind of fund for him too. For him to then just up sticks and sign for a local rival must really stick in the throat. Whatever way you look at it he comes across as completely entitled and self-centred. Bet he gets a warm welcome back at Farnborough, assuming he's fit.Thelittleowl1 wrote: Wed May 13, 2026 2:05 amVery interesting statement from Farnborough.

The trouble is insurance covering full wages and medical bills would be incredibly expensive and take up a very significant part of the playing budget.Jamie wrote: Wed May 13, 2026 11:49 am Players and clubs instead of taking out the lowest insurance package that covers statutory sick pay, should take out higher packages that covers full wages and medical bills.
I've never agreed with whip rounds etc to support players being injured for this reason.
I remember a Hampton player who had a bucket collection when injured, I said at the time will he stay when back to fitness. Low and behold when was fit again he soon left for a better deal elsewhere.
Could be a big test for Hanworth next season. They're not a big club, and there's a lot of travelling in that division. Not to mention the step up in standard. I'd be happy to be proved wrong though.BeaverWatcher wrote: Thu May 14, 2026 12:34 pm Allocations for next season have come out.
Nothing shocking and no lateral movement.
Bye bye to Worthing, Hornchurch, Bath, Chippenham, Enfield & Eastbourne
Hello to Braintree, Truro, Folkestone, Braintree, Walton & Farnham
Some lateral movements and reprieve's further down the pyramid with Leatherhead finding themselves in the Isthmian League and Chichester moved across in to the Southern League South in to that division where Hanworth Villa find themselves along with the likes of Chertsey, Bath and Chippenham
Sounds like a big club trying to throw their weight around with a smaller one and shows absolutely no respect to the club where he made his name. If true, I hope he gets into trouble for it.Tony wrote: Thu May 14, 2026 5:35 pm Big row brewing between Walton and Horsham and Yeovil after approaches by former W&H manager Billy Rowley to their contracted players.
